I think I may be splurging on this guy. Extra gun and snazzy detailing? That's how I try to live my life.

I think this guy will be worth the extra scratch. Those apps are brilliant and liberally-applied.
Painted face = awesome.

The difference in details is astounding.
If I had the funds, I'd order this on the spot. But I don't, so I'm gunna have to wait for the Hasbro release.

From what I could remember, you could buy to Hasbro ones for the extra red blaster, then pitch the second metroplex and STILL come out ahead of buying the Takara one. ![:KREMZEEK:]( "Kremzeek")
I'd laugh, but I really want it. Me likey paint apps.![>:oP]( "Drinking Coffee")

The X-factor will be what the rumored SDCC repaint looks like and how obtainable it is for non-attendees.

That... is a significant improvement. Bravo, Takara! You continue to make my wallet cry.
If Metroplex is indeed the SDCC exclusive, though, that might change things entirely...

A different deco of Metroplex is this year's SDCC exclusive. We just don't know what the deco is.

But is the extra paint really worth another 100 to 130 dollars more then the Hasbro version... i just cant seem to sell my self on it.

Well, you gotta keep in mind import prices and shipping. Plus, extra gun, tee-wee bit more expensive.![;)]( "Wink")

I trust that there are better paint apps on the Takara version as they tend to do that, but I really can't see too much with the low res photo.

I pre-ordered him anyway, but still I am questioning my decision. Its alot of money, but he keeps saying he must heed the call of the last prime and I must make it so!

I bet my left nut that it will be at least DOUBLE the price of the Hasbro version.
Not worth it in my book.

Eh, Hasbro version is good enough, and way cheaper.
